The Daily Sucker - Current examples of bad web design

The Daily Sucker

Sites featured in articles like Worst Websites of 2010 often are redesigned, which explains why some sites mentioned in my articles don't match their current look. The Daily Sucker features current examples of bad web design which haven't been fixed (yet).

If you see a site that you think sucks, email the URL to me. No personal pages (personal pages are supposed to reflect the individual's personality and artistic freedom) or web site designers (it would look like a conflict of interest), or others of their ilk.

If I think there's some merit to your selection, I may post it along with some commentary. If you know of a site that qualifies, let me know.

Daily Sucker #1 for Thursday, April 30, 2009

Submitter’s comments: Found this on Digg, and instantly thought of you for these four factors:

  • Way over-the-top intro.
  • Flashturbation.
  • Religious web site.
  • GlobeGuy would like it.

Vincent Flanders’ comments: I searched for it on Digg and discovered the site was Dugg 7,852 times, with over 1,000 comments. The headline was The Most Intense Web site. Intro Ever and it certainly qualifies.

Yes, it sucks like…well, I can’t write the analogy because I try to be somewhat audience friendly. Nevertheless, I WANT A SPLASH-FLASH PAGE LIKE THIS FOR WPTS. I’ve always prided myself on having a somewhat tacky design. This FlashSplash is perfect. All some talented designer with a Flash decompiler has to do is replace ICCM with WPTS and change some of the wording around. Man, oh, man, I’d love to start off WPTS with a steaming, smelling pile of crap like that.
